Marc Atkinson Trio and/or with Cameron Wilson |

“It's not just that Atkinson is so technically proficient that he can spin out seemingly impossible-to-play, breathtaking lines at will, it's the emotional nuance and sense of humour in his work that are so engaging. Drawing on classical, jazz, roots, and even some rock traditions, he dips into a deep well he has visited many times to surprise and delight his audience with new takes on old tunes and sensitive renderings of his own highly melodic compositions.” Rick Gibbs, Island Jazz
-----
After more than two decades of musical output, Marc Atkinson is both difficult to define and readily identifiable. He is first and foremost a masterful acoustic guitarist who combines lyricism, rhythmic precision and technical mastery into a distinctive guitar voice. That voice is further defined by Atkinson’s significant talents as a composer of lush and melodic original works. His virtuosity and compositional strengths are showcased in the recordings and live performances of the Marc Atkinson Trio, the internationally renowned acoustic trio described by Jurgen Goethe as “one of the top ten of the world’s working string trios.” The Trio with Cameron Wilson: Take all that the Trio has to offer after four award-winning CDs and decades of touring, and add the impeccable sounds of Cameron's sweet and playful violin! Many will recognize Cameron as a member of the classical crossover piano trio, Joe Trio, the acoustic string jazz quartet, Van Django, the Hard Rubber Orchestra, Mariachi del Sol, francophone trio Pastiche, and Tambura Rasa. It's a concert filled with melody, rhythm and just good old-fashioned fun. Showcase Artist: Pacific Contact 2018 Home Base: British Columbia Touring Schedule: Click here |
